| Vote | Vote Date | Good Vote | Vote |
|---|---|---|---|
| A4047 | 28/Oct/2024 | Good: No | Yes |
|
Unemployment Insurance
We Oppose. This bill expands a socialist welfare program, redistributing wealth through government-mandated benefits and increasing the financial burden on taxpayers. By broadening eligibility and eliminating repayment requirements for improperly distributed funds, A4047 promotes dependency on government rather than personal responsibility. Additionally, this bill sets a precedent for further expansion of government welfare programs.

| A4700 | 28/Jun/2024 | Good: No | Yes |
|
State Budget
We Oppose. Federal funds come with strings attached, handing over state sovereignty to the federal government. Additionally, lawmakers should focus on reducing all taxes, including corporate and sales taxes in New Jersey.
|
|||
| A2280 | 20/May/2024 | Good: No | Yes |
|
Appraiser Bias
We Oppose. The government should not interfere with private entities or the free market. This bill imposes unnecessary regulations on appraisers, potentially leading to artificially adjusted property valuations that do not accurately reflect market conditions. By mandating anti-bias training and restricting the factors appraisers can consider, A2280 subjects professionals to government oversight that could pressure them into valuations based on political considerations rather than economic realities. Such interference undermines property rights, distorts fair-market pricing, and sets a dangerous precedent for further state control over private industry, particularly private-property evaluations.
|
|||
| A4161 | 14/May/2024 | Good: No | None |
|
School Grant
We Oppose. Education is not a proper function of government, and taxpayers should not be forced to fund schooling for other people’s children. This bill further entrenches government control over education by propping up failing school districts with grants—an unjust redistribution of wealth that picks winners and losers rather than allowing competition to drive improvement. Additionally, A4161 makes it easier for bureaucrats to increase the financial burden on homeowners. We encourage parents to remove their children from government-run schools and seek sound alternatives, such as homeschooling or patriotic private institutions such as FreedomProject Academy, which operate without government funding.

| S2611 | 18/Mar/2024 | Good: No | Yes |
|
Menstrual Equity Task Force
We Oppose. Taxpayer dollars should not be used to fund unnecessary task forces that push ideological agendas under the false pretense of “equity.” Equity does not promote true equality — instead, it enforces government-mandated outcomes that redistribute resources unfairly. Public universities have become places of Marxist indoctrination, and funding should be cut off.
|
|||
| S1313 | 18/Mar/2024 | Good: No | Yes |
|
Woke Business Certification Standards
We Oppose. Government-mandated certification based on identity promotes reverse discrimination, fosters division, and advances a woke agenda. Taxpayers should not be forced to fund policies that prioritize contracts based on identity rather than merit. Government interference in business and personal matters undermines free enterprise and violates the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of equal protection under the law.

| A5294 | 08/Jan/2024 | Good: Yes | Yes |
|
Sound Money
We Support. This bill is a strong step toward restoring constitutional money and the gold standard.
|
|||
| A5086 | 02/Feb/2023 | Good: No | Yes |
|
Welfare Increase
We Oppose. The U.S. constitution does not permit federal social-welfare programs and propping people up via government support.
